The other day I was talking to my stepmom who is as southern as they come. She loves working outside in her garden, loves horses, and is just an all around wonderful lady. Well, during our conversation, she told me that a family would be dropping off some chickens so I assumed that she was going to start raising chickens. That was not the case! The family was dropping the chickens off so that she could ring their necks and pluck them! All I can say is…..G-R-O-S-S!! Just the thought of it makes me want to throw-up!! While I love meat and will not turn down a good steak, I cannot look at raw meat. Just being in the meat section, at a local grocery store, grosses me out!

This past Monday (Memorial Day), I thought that I would be a good wife and make dinner for my darling hubby. Afterall, he does ALL of the cooking as I was not made to be in the kitchen. Let’s just say the fire department is on speed dial when I try to cook. It’s not pretty! Anyway, back to my story, I decided that I was going to make a pork roast in the crockpot…not hard, right? Well, it was because I had to handle the raw meat! So, I put on a pair of rubber gloves and goggles and proceeded to wash the meat, put a pork rub on it and placed it in the crockpot.

This was all done, of course, in a lovely pair of pink stilettos!

My husband thought I was crazy, but got a good laugh while watching me attempt to make him dinner. He especially got a thrill out of the rubber gloves and goggles. Hey, a diva has got to protect herself, right? I gladly turned the kitchen back over to him on Tuesday!!

So girlfriend, try something new today. Just remember to wear your high-heels and definitely wear gloves…you don’t want to get your hands dirty and ruin those lovely nails!!
